The best book memes?

This made me laugh, so it's only fair to share

I like a good meme. OK, I love them, and I have to be careful not to go down meme-papered rabbit holes or I'll lose several hours before I know what's happened.


My favorite memes are about books, which will surprise no one.


And it occurred to me that since you're here, reading this bookish email, you probably also like memes about books.


me: I like reading because it's relaxing. me: *screams at book*. me: *throws book against the wall*. me: *cries over characters for days on end*. me: *curses the author's name to the winds*. me: so relaxing


But what, I ask you, is the best book meme of all?


I would really like to see it. Please nominate your favorite(s) by replying.


And while you're pondering that, have several more memes:


text above a youthful penguin says, Prefers the 2005 Pride & Prejudice adaptation over the 1995 BBC miniseries. Text over an adult penguin with an annoyed expression says, Cannot believe kids these days


This text, When you have to stop reading to work, make dinner and/or sleep, appears above a photo of David from Schitt's Creek saying, Very uninterested in THAT option


Over an image of a potoo bird with eyes looking different directions, this text. The world: You can't read two books at once. Me:



That adorably derpy bird, by the way? A potoo. (Google "baby potoo" for even more adorableness.)


May you have a week of excellent reading and hilarious book jokes.


Oh! And remember to grab my "Hard Bargain" book gift if you've read Into the Bargain already and want to know what happens next. If you've already grabbed and read, I hope you enjoyed it.
